Good afternoon my dear lenders, Its always a joy to talk to you. I would like to inform you of the progress and strides I have been able to make in my corn business.. So far, my corn has been doing well and am glad to inform you that in the next two to three weeks, my corn will be ready for harvest and ready for the market. What gives me so much joy is to note that through the loan I received from you, It has in a big way facilitated this tremendous progress and timely maturity and growth of the corn. Am optimistic and hoping for great returns from the harvest and sale of the crop. I will keep you updated in every step I take and the plans I have for my corn business.. God bless you all and Thank you for being a blessing to many. God bless the Zidisha Team Kind Regards, Eliud.

Hello Duke, I do appreciate you taking the time each week to let your lenders know how you are. I enjoy reading your posts! My promise to you is that I will always make sure that any new loan request you make is funded, so that is something that you don't have to worry about. My only advice to you is to enjoy and spend time with your son, as he will grow up quickly! Have a great day, Melissa

Hi Zidisha, Long time since I last wrote a comment. November and December were very busy months, a festive season. I supplied more than one thousand bowls to different customers. Uganda and South Africa were leading in demand. Now I'm expand my studio and I have added two more artists to increase manpower.
